Superhero Night and Family Fun!

On Friday night, Zander and I attended a mother-child Superhero Night at our church! It was for ages 3 to 5th grade and we had a blast hanging out with other kids and their moms for the evening.  Zander did a great job listening to the guest speaker who talked about how we could be mighty with God's help.... referring specifically to Micah 6:8 ("He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.  And what does the Lord require of you?  To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.") and the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.  When I leaned over to ask Zander who he thought was the fourth person in the fire with these three guys.... he said "Jesus" enthusiastically.  It was so sweet and while he may be just saying the "Sunday school" answer right now... I can tell he is soaking up a lot of the information he is learning about the amazing God we worship and serve.

On Saturday morning, we loaded up the boys and headed west to spend the day with our family "back home".  Aunt A and Uncle Jay had come home for the weekend so we were able to see them along with Granny V, Paw Paw, Uncle Grant, Grannie and GranDan.  As you can tell from the pictures, the boys had a lot to entertain them and many hugs to show them lots of love!  We are truly blessed by all the family we have close by!
